Core Tip
Core tip: The resistance rate of Helicobacter pylori is increasing and there is an urgent need to develop better treatment strategies. We review the current progress in the field with regard to prevention of drug-resistant bacterial infection, effective diagnosis and standardized treatment, rational application of antibacterial drugs, and prevention of drug-resistant bacterial transmission. The factors causing drug resistance are suggested to be eliminated so as to ensure the success of the first-line treatment of patients with drug resistance, whose accurate treatment is based on individual drug history and drug-sensitivity testing results. Traditional Chinese medicine has good effects in the treatment of drug-resistant bacterial infection and should be more widely applied.
